Great stuff! My grandson and I decided to go around the house and clean up any spots on the carpets that we could find. I had a bottle of Resolve and a bottle of this mix. We tried them both side by side. This won hands down! The commercial cleaner left lots of soapy residue and needed to be rinsed several times. This worked quickly and left no soapy residue at all. Thanks Fauve for sharing this great cleaner. Made for Chef Alphabet Soup Tag.

I've been using this for a couple months now - wanted to wait and see if it really worked. It works great. I was cleaning this morning behind a chair and found a big dark spot - I have no idea what it was or how long it's been there, but this cleaned it up perfectly. Also yesterday my little scavenger poodle ate an Asparagus Fern and threw up about four places - on the carpet, of course. After a franic call to the vet, I cleaned it up and it came clean - even the undigested dog food (I know gross), which I'm sure has coloring in it. Thanks so much Fauve. This is all I will be using from now on.

<p>September 15, 2007: Here's a photo of me and my two girls before leaving our hotel room to go to an Avett Brothers concert. We're all huge fans of the group. We're also huge fans of each other. It's fun to have adult children. <br /> <br /> <br />--- About me: I'm an artist, and art teacher to kids kindergarten age through 8th grade. My life whirls at a breakneck pace. I teach approximately 800 students, and have 30 different classes each week. It's crazy!!! The rewards, however, are the numerous hugs and good vibes I get from my students. If I didn't have my good-looking husband to stabilize me, I'd surely be sporting a straight-jacket. Oh, and did I mention my yarn obsession? I've made hundreds of crochet items in the past few months, and have a little shop on etsy. Check out my website when you have the time:</p>
